I dunno. If I take a vacation to another country, I think I will make a point of staying in Christendom.

Turkey is very interesting in a Christian sort of way. There’s Ephesus for one, Pergamon for another... lots of places that Apostle Paul visited and preached and lots of Christian sites where NT stuff happened.

It was beautiful. Have some great pics of TU.

Speaking of Turkey, Operation Nemesis was an enjoyable experience for some.

Visited Izmir Turkey on two Med cruises back in the mid-60's while serving in the USMC. From Izmir we sailed down the west coast of Turkey to the Bodrum/Marmaris area and pulled a amphibious landing exercise. We spent approximately 2 weeks in the field training.
Fast forward some 45 years and my wife and I flew into Istanbul to meet up with a cruise ship. We arrived in Istanbul a few days early before boarding our ship. From there we sailed thru the Sea of Maramara, the Dardanelles (past Gallipoli which this year is commemorating the 100 year anniversary of the WWI battle fought there between the British allies ... mostly ANZAC units and the Turks) with our first port of call Kusadasi, Turkey (near Ephesus). Latter we sailed on to Rhodes, Greece then to Bodrum, Turkey. Great trip and one I would recommend. Istanbul is a fascinating city.

I was stationed there and lived there for a year.
No, thanks.
It’s a craphole.

For millennia, Turkeys Marmara has been a physical and figurative bridge between Eastern and Western cultures, religions, and histories. It was here, at this crossroad of civilization, where Persian King Xerxes built his famed bridge of boats over the Dardanelles for his conquest of Europe. Here, on the treacherous waters of the Bosphorus, Jason led the Argonauts to find the Golden Fleece. Up against the legendry Walls of Troy, an impossible beauty launched a thousand ships and a wooden horse destroyed an ancient people. * yawn * whattaya done lately?

Turkey has repeatedly turned their backs on the U.S. since the initial Gulf war and it has caused many American military deaths.
Turkey can kiss my ass and go to hell, they will not get a penny from me, not now or ever.
